Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord?


   Considering the many, many brands of power cords I've tried in my very well accomplished high-end system, I have never been so impacted by these Core Power Technology power cords. Within a very short period(15-20) minutes my system literally came alive. Soundstage opened wider and deeper. The background became dead silent, space between instruments and stage members were more focused and everything sounded cleaner and musical than ever. My highs had a glorious crispness and symbols shimmered. Midrange through my 2" horn became more dynamic and punchy. My 15" bass driver tightened and dug low with great control. My Rel G1 which is a fabulous sub on its own but with a CPT 150 on it is another story. Running high pass from my sub to my Audiozen Noah amplifier, music depth is just stunning. Lower end bass is authoritative and clean with solid grip and impact. 
   My experience with these power cords is truly magical. The scary part of the above is I only have one 150 on my sub and one 300 from my wall to my 6 outlet bar. I still need 3 more to complete my system. I could just imagine the level after that...In closing, I cannot emphasize enough to try one of these in your system. I CANNOT and WIIL NOT take these out as they are that good. But hold your jaw, cuz what you've been listening to will just become real after Core Power Technologies. 

Cheers....and let the tapping begin.......

And how do you think another one of Mark's posts would help Dan, Modwright or the future of the CPT brand or products.  Walking away gracefully and quietly would be best for all involved.  If he feels the need to communicate with the "injured parties" from his actions then do so privately and let this dog die.  
As Dan is currently working on a new phono stage, a new integrated amp and a new DAC mod I also doubt he would do much more with the Deep Core unless he is satisfied that it is a complete and working product.  The Equi=Core products on the other hand are well reviewed, tested and proven to work so continuing with them would be the first priority I would think.  As of yet no mention of the CPT situation on AC and may not be for some time.

If I was him and was in fact attempting to buy CPT the last thing I would want would be Mark back on here with more song and dance.

While I like mine there is no way I would order a product directly from Mark at this point in time.  Even when they were in "regular production" it took me almost three months.  
That's the same one a CPT dealer pointed me to when all of the problems started at the end of the year.  They were on Ebay too at one point.
Mark sent me one with the 1800 because of the shipping delay but I never tried it as I am happy with the TWL power cord loom.  
Just more self serving nonsense from everybody involved in or around this company for the past several months.  
Any prospective buyers that may or may not exist may have gotten wind of the Audiogon postings and put a stop to them.  I certainly would have in their position.  Nothing left for Mark to say at this point anyway and if Kemper is in fact to be an employee of the new company then he needs to distance himself from the past as he was not actually involved in the business's operation or failure. My two cents.  
This phenomenon pretty much mirrors the product expansion of AV123 with the same results.
So again him making veiled threats to get even for at least the second time is o.k. in light of his behavior over the last six to eight months?

That makes multiple times that Mark has made an almost identical post containing apology, then excuses, then poor pitiful me followed up by veiled threats of lawyers and legal action ending up with a second set of apologies.  This behavior is obviously acceptable to the Moderators and administration of  this forum.  I wish the best for all of you guys that are on the hook to this character just like the victims of the AV123 fiasco were in the past but I think your idea of being compensated with either money or product by a company buyer, if one actually exists, is a pipedream.  Why would they be willing to open themselves up to legal action by becoming involved with Mark's prior behavior.  He took your money and spent it on personal expenses not them. As his history shows he never knows when to quit when he is ahead.
I would suspect that a new buyer, if there is one, will change both the name and the casework for the products to distance themselves just as grannyring suggested. Any spare parts left lying around in Colorado have surely been used up by now on the products being sold on Audiogon to drum up survival cash.
For anyone still looking to buy a similar product to the 1800 this is an alternative at a better price.

Well Kemper has posted in another thread within the last half hour yet has avoided this thread so you be the judge as to his situation until he chooses to clarify.

According to acaman (Hugh of Angel City Audio)  who knows them there is a wife named Lynn, a grandson and even a son-in-law.  This I confirmed with another source who has known them for decades.  So as despicable as Mark's behavior is and has been you might want to check your facts before jumping in. As someone aware of Mark's history I only bought from a dealer who charged after verifying the item was shipped. and contrary to what you think he is not tainted at all by this situation.  
The 600 volt Keces weighs just short of 16 pounds so it is in the ballpark for 500 volts.  
My understanding from reading the "announcement" was that Exogal was only purchasing to rights to produce Equi=Core and Deep Core products and nothing else.  Anything previous to the closing of the sale is on Mark still.
Patrick Cullen and Cullen Cables have nothing to do with CPT and never have.  The cable that Mark was selling is being sold on Amazon by WAudio whoever it is sourced from in China.  Order one and try it as you have 30 days to send it back if you  don't think it is the same cable.  As you discovered Furutech is a Japanese company.

And even though you have no skin in this game at all you keep posting in this thread and people keep ignoring you.  In fact you haven't made but one post on this entire forum since August that wasn't in this thread.  So why don't you tell everyone what your ulterior motive is.  
I think you forget that Dan by his own admission was also an "Industry Friend" who chose not to help Mark for business reasons.  He was not the only one who in the end decided to walk away.  Walter on the other hand chose, as the largest dealer of the products, decided to see if he could save a product he believed in and even though he has no obligation to do so seems willing to make some of Mark's broken promises right.  So why don't you quit spouting off about something that doesn't affect you and let Walter and the customers work it out.  What happens to Mark now doesn't affect that.  
No but you commented about why he would buy from Mark as if that was the reason for his recent negative comments towards Walter.  I was pointing out that his vitriol has nothing to do with a purchase where he is owed money or product at all.  The only product he ever bought was a 1200 which he received long ago.  This is the only thread he visits on this forum at all. There's more to it.

Mark doesn't owe Chazzy anything either product or money so he has no skin in this at all.
The Keces unit is another option.  Their LPS's are getting glowing reviews.
